AI companies & mass media want you to focus on the manufactured panic that there's a 10% chance AI will kill us all. That's to distract you from the reality: there's a 100% chance they can use AI to kill 10% of us. Sound crazy? They've already done it. In Gaza. www.theguardian.com/film/video/2...

Last month, we refurbished 10 tennis courts in Crotona Park — the only public tennis courts in the Bronx with lights for night play. We stopped by recently to see how things were going. Thank you to NYJTL, USTA and Yonex for helping us deliver high-quality public spaces that New Yorkers deserve.

Any analysis of the Iran War that doesn't start and end with the fact that an entire cottage industry of think tankers and lobbyists and their friends in Congress were frothing at the mouth for literal decades for this got exactly what they wanted and it failed immediately and totally is wrong.
